Find it hard to celebrate a goal these days which is a great shame.

Goal goes in. I think... Wait. Let's see if it's allowed.
Can't not be that wasn't offside, no fouls. Let's wait though...
Could of been a foul leading up to the goal in our own half I've not seen. A player taking a player on they've had chance to look at and say it's a push.

Goal given. Yes. Get in. That's the best it gets celebration wise. A get in a few minutes after the goal.

This is another thing rugby gets right. Because you're talked through all the reasoning and all the angles on a contentious try, there's serious tension with both sets of supporters and if the decision goes your way it's a lot better than scoring a try or winning a penalty or scrum on your line.
 
Has anyone can anyone asked PIGMOL why no lines on TV for Liverpool v Manchester City ? See them everyone else is it a Liverpool thing ? Or a Liverpool Manchester City ?
 
No lines, only one replay on tv, not covered after the match. Nothing to see here please move along.

Do you think the clubs know if anything is going on ? Specifically city and are they doing anything surely they must have the occasional spot check or club official watching these things
 
Clubs, namely the Scum and Rags, should be forced to find a place for screens. It’s ridiculous they don’t have them!

Coincidence?! I think not!

Can we get rid of this once and for all. All the screen does is say 'VAR check ongoing' or 'No penalty'. It does not show the incident. It does not assist the Rags or Dips by not having one.
The only reason the Rags havent got one is that they would have to take seats out therefore cutting revenue. As for the scousers, they havent got one because they havent been able to nick one yet.

Let me answer it this way. The only two occasions that there have been very iffy decisions and whether VAR was working or not have been at the same ground and involving City. My own thought is City were simply told it had been checked and the refs decision was correct. They have no way of arguing against that and if they had done the press would have hammered them so they had no choice but to say nowt.
 
Leicester’s first yesterday. Linesman yet again with a flag straight up for offside, despite clear instructions not to flag unless its clearly off. VAR thankfully checked it and goal given. Happened so many times in last month, goals for us/against the rags/dippers automatically given off by the officials and goals for them always given every chance to count. In a non VAR world results would have been very different.

How the Bin Dippers and Rags are referee’d compared to everyone else is a disgrace.....

No fan of VAR but in this instance they actually flag once the move has finished. So when the goal was scored. Correct by Linno in this instance to flag as it looked offside.
 
Klopp actually raised a valid key failing in the VAR offside rule yesterday. He was lashing out at how a decision is made on when to freeze a frame for the offside to be calculated.
This is, and always will be the issue. Offside is therefore a subjective rather than scientific call as some like to pretend.
I would be fucked off if that goal had stood v City.
Klopp is still a CNT though. Never seen him raise this issue the dozens of times it has aided his team.

Exactly, and that's why his opinion loses all validity.
 
No. His claim is valid. It is a valid point. Him making the claim is hypocracy.
But go back to the free kick/penalty award. How was that a clear and obvious error. They cannot interpret the law differently every time but they do. Clear and obvious means he sent the wrong player off, he missed the defender diving and tipping the shot round the post with his hand. It does not mean two inches from the 18 yard box line. For offside, clear and obvious should mean the same, not lines drawn on a screen and a debate about when a player kicked it towards the forward.
The whole thing is a farce.
 
Why wasn’t the two footed, out of control assault in Gabby looked at by VAR? They seem to look at everything else? Oh that’s right, he’s in a blue shirt.
Corrupt and bent as fcuk.

I am not disagreeing apart from the whole VAR is fundamentally flawed and no amount of tinkering can stop that. Give me any form of VAR argument then give me a tissue. I will wipe my arse with the pair of them.
